Episode description

Facebook has always nudged truant users back to its platform though emails and notifications. But recently, those prods have evolved beyond comments related to activity on your own profile.

The spamming has even extended to those who sign up for two-factor authentication—which is a great way to turn people off to that extra layer of security.
